Enh, if someone doesn't want me to do it, I won't. But...my browser makes a copy of it to my hard drive when I hit up the web page, so the effect is pretty much the same. But I'll respect the intent.

I do wonder about people like euclase. She periodically yanks down all her art from the web. She even sometimes deletes it from her hard drive. But she has OCD, and I think it's related. I have seen her ask people for copies of what she's gotten rid of, so I don't think she means to take it out of circulation--but it's all a bit weird.

Aaiieee! D/C S/g HS AU just felt like pedo grooming porn. I just can't take it. I need a way to find the HS AU where D /s C and S does nothing with G.

What is S/g? Is Gabriel ... a child?

That was me dropping caps for no reason. It should have been S/G. G where he's older than D, and S is properly younger than Dean and still in high school, and they have a claustrophobic upbringing and G calls him "kid" and it just seems....fine for the equally aged kids and weird for their brothers.

Ah.

I like Gabriel, the Trickster, whatever you want to call him, just fine, but I don't get him having chemistry with either brother. Honestly. And I can't see either Dean or Sam going there with him, given their history. I've never gotten those pairings. But I also don't get Bobby/either brother pairings. (Except, um, that one. Which was sort of sad and plausible.)

Gabriel comes across as joyously heterosexual to me, and also someone who probably wouldn't shit where he eats, if that makes sense. The Winchesters fall on the side of work for him, in a way, and I see him wanting to keep work and play separate, at least sexually.

This. I find I like the idea of them being uneasy allies of convenience who occasionally find themselves weirded out that they enjoy the other's company. It's one of those cases where, for me, glimmers of friendship in the relationship carry more of a frisson than a more sexual tension would.

I could see for a brief flash, Trickster Gabriel having high-spirited fun times with Dean. But nothing serious, nothing repetitive. Their dark sides are incompatible...Gabriel's dark side I only really put in Kali's hands. Dean and Cas--their darknesses work better together.

S/G always have G discovering he's not that bad really! And for me that's like him discovering he's not the character they wrote on the show.

Bobby/Sam is sick and implausible. Daddy issues!Dobby works for me, in a not pretty way.

Yeah. In that one story, anyway (for me).

Balthazar, now, would do Dean *and* Sam in a heartbeat.

Balthazar would do Dean and Sam at the same time. Eiffel Tower, baby.

You could insert nearly any other character names in the latter part of that sentence, and it would still be true.
